Partial Translation:

 

YH: (Looking at Changmin) We are in bromance lately, right? In old days, we were really shy about crossing our arms or placing one’s arm around each other’s shoulders, so we don’t have many pictures like that…but these days we are doing something like that a lot.
CM: Yes, we are doing business while being really friendly to each other! (laugh)

– Were you able to see each other on occasions?
CM: Sometime I gave YH a call and asked him out to have meal together or we went out with our managers to have a cup of teas. Not too often. every once in awhile.

– When did you feel like calling YH or did you miss YH?
CM: wait a second.. that sounds like we are lovers, right? It is not like that. It is more like, I wonder how YH has been doing? I want to talk to him about work. something like that. its not like “I wanna hear YH’s voice♡ i miss him♡”.
YH: Yes, yes. We love women! But when I watch our juniors being on stage on TV, or when I hear them saying that they wish to become like TVXQ, I realize…the road that I have been walking with Changmin is not a wrong one and I missed Changmin terribly.

 

 


 

Yunho

I have some artistic hobbies. I get Thai massage for relaxing.

For these two years, I was able to have some private time and I found more hobbies. Right now, I am so much into remaking clothes. I bring my own design to a shop and ask them to make it into real. For example, I remake a T-shirt into a pouch bag, or I make a bag out of basket ball leather by installing a zipper. I enjoy my own arrangement. Do I have a good taste? well I am not too confident (laugh). But my stylist(s) like my idea! I get complement like “I did not expect this but you have a good taste”. People often says that I am not a typical blood type A person, but when I design something, I think I can take advantage of my blood type A delicate personality. In order to stimulate my artistic brain, I’ve started to visit museums.
I also love to draw words that popped up in my head using pop fonts. I add some lines, or draw them upside down, I play with characters/fonts by designing them. A little after I look them back, I can think about what was in my mind back then, and these may serve as my diary/journal. For example, I wrote down “TVXQ (The english name of Tohoshinki)”

When I want to relax, I have a Thai massage. When a masseur gives me a Thai massage, he/she kneads my knotted muscle and release the stress not only from my body but also from my soul, and I feel totally refreshed. He/she tells me where my muscles are tight, and I also learn how to give a massage. Do I give a massage to Changmin? I am a bit shy to do that. Well, when my skills have improved, I can give one to him, perhaps 🙂 Sorry, I was being a bit condescending (laugh).
